SBTech takes home CEEGC award

(PRESS RELEASE) -- Sports betting solutions and iGaming platform provider SBTech has strengthened its market-leading position by winning the award for Best Sports Betting Provider at the 2017 Central and Eastern Europe Gaming Conference (CEEGC) for the second year running.

The CEEGC award for Best Overall Sports Betting Software Provider makes it a double in two years for SBTech as the company walked away with the prize in 2016. The award is also a demonstration of the market-leading qualities that have made SBTech the fastest-growing betting and iGaming solutions provider in the sector, as shown by its recent agreement to launch with Sky Bet in the German market.

Richard Carter, chief executive of SBTech, commented, "The Central and Eastern European markets are vital in terms of realizing our vision of providing software and services in every regulated market, and we are absolutely delighted to have won the award for Best Sports Betting Provider at the 2017 CEEGC. As a company, we're very proud that the quality and depth of our product is recognized in this way, and we look forward to expanding further in the region."

The 2017 CEEGC conference took place in Budapest this week, with the awards voted on by the attending delegates. SBTech's chief commercial officer Andrew Cochrane gave a keynote presentation on the omni-channel player journey.

Zoltan Tundik, founder and organizer of the CEEGC, added: "As the winner of the Overall Sports Betting Software Provider category, SBTech was voted for by almost 72% of CEEGC delegates, which shows just what an overwhelming choice it was for the award. We were really honored to see all the major brands shaping the industry present at the conference and the awards ceremony and look forward to building on this key event for the region."
